Raven's Claw at Hogwarts

Chapter 155 Marauder's Map
As soon as the words were finished, a puzzled expression appeared on Ginny's face, and there were faint question marks on her head.

Seeing Mike staring at her all the time, Ginny could only feel the horrible feeling from before coming again, and the upper and lower rows of teeth trembled uncontrollably, making a rattling sound.

"No, no! I really haven't seen it before.!" Ginny raised her arms again in a gesture of surrender.

Mike, who stared at Ginny's face for a long time and still found nothing, finally withdrew his gaze. Just as he was about to speak to appease Ginny, who was frightened into a lamb, Harry's voice came from his ears.

"Mike, Mike. Don't do this, Ginny didn't do it on purpose." Harry finally couldn't stand it anymore, and persuaded, "Besides, she is also here to help us, isn't she?"

"I was the one who was abrupt, and I hope Miss Weasley can forgive me." A gentle smile appeared on Mike's face again, and he followed Harry's words.

Ginny on the opposite side was obviously shocked by the 360-degree change in Mike's expression, she was stunned for a while before she realized it, and hurriedly apologized to Mike, as if she was the one who was wrong.

The sharp-eyed Mike noticed that although Ginny was apologizing to him, but her eyes had been staring at Harry, he immediately understood, and quickly bumped Harry with his arm.

The young Harry was obviously lacking in sophistication, looking at Mike innocently, he couldn't figure out why Mike bumped into him suddenly.

It wasn't until Mike pointed at Ginny indistinctly that Harry came to his senses and said, "Thank you Ginny this time."

Ginny was so happy to receive the thank you from the person she admired, the expression on her face that was still in shock changed into a happy smile in an instant.

Ginny felt that her face must be very red now, maybe even up to her neck.

Embarrassed, Ginny covered her face and fled back to the dormitory and threw herself on the bed. Fortunately, she remembered the way, otherwise she would have to fall into the mud if she ran with her eyes covered. .

"Harry thanked me, Harry thanked me... Huh~"

Ginny, who was lying on the bed, repeated this sentence repeatedly, and the blush on her face not only did not fade, but tended to spread to her neck.

Finally, after repeating it countless times, Ginny seemed to think of something embarrassing, and covered her head with the quilt with a cry of surprise.

……

Saying goodbye to Harry, Mike returned to the bedroom with the Marauder's Map.

If what Ginny said was true, then Percy could basically be sure that he was the heir.But Mike only believed [-]% of Ginny's words, and that's the same sentence, Ginny's own ass hasn't been wiped clean yet.

The truth needs to be found by oneself.

Thinking so, Mike unfolded the Marauder's Map.

What appeared in front of Mike was a blank piece of parchment. The surface of the parchment was slightly yellowed due to oxidation, and there were some stains. I don't know if it was made by the Weasley brothers or it was there.

"I solemnly swear that I have done nothing good."

As Mike said the password, it was like a drop of ink dripping on the rice paper, and a small black ink mark appeared in the center of the parchment.

The ink marks gradually melted away, and a complete map of Hogwarts appeared in front of Mike.

The range marked on the map is very wide, not only Hogwarts Castle itself, but also the Forbidden Forest and Hogsmeade Village are covered.

Mike could clearly see that Hagrid's name appeared on the map where the gamekeeper's hut was marked, and under Hagrid's name, there was a pair of footprints.

Staring at the castle-like pattern representing Hogwarts on the map, Mike thought about the Ravenclaw lounge in his mind.

The pattern on the parchment changed instantly. All the patterns were crowded together in a mess and then quickly separated. When the picture stabilized again, a floor plan of the Ravenclaw lounge appeared in front of Mike.

Seeing that his name also appeared on the map, Mike couldn't help showing a look of surprise on his face.

This Marauder's map is simply invincible!

The general principle of the Marauder's Map can still be analyzed by Mike. It is nothing more than name magic, pattern recording magic, password magic and positioning magic.

Needless to say, the password magic of using a password to open the map, basically wizards who have a little understanding of alchemy will know it.

The simplest of the remaining three magics is the pattern record magic, which can be said to be the most used magic in the wizarding world.From the moving magic cards attached to the chocolate frog to the characters on the magic portraits that can move by themselves, all of these exist only by relying on patterns to record magic.

This magic is easy to learn but difficult to master. Any specially trained wizard can learn it, but it is very difficult to achieve the level of being able to make magical portraits.

All the patterns on the Marauder's Map that can be seen with the naked eye are all cast with pattern recording magic.

Then there is name magic, just like those devils or giant dragons in ancient myths have a magical "real name", the names in the world of Harry Potter are also magical, but it is not as exaggerated as described in the myths.

Name magic is researched for this feature, but because it is too obscure, no one will study it except those wizards who are erudite.

But if the name magic is used well, it can also achieve some unexpected effects, the most famous of which is Voldemort.

Voldemort, the legendary dark wizard, cast name magic on his name. Whenever someone recites his name, he will feel it. Then as long as he wants, he will be able to know your location and identity, and then Down to what was said.

Therefore, during the period when Voldemort swept across the UK, almost all the wizards in the wizarding world did not dare to directly chant Voldemort's name, but used the mysterious person (you known who) to refer to it.

This habit is still handed down to this day.

Finally, there is positioning magic. This magic itself is not difficult. It is even just a spell technique and cannot be called magic.Many spells, including Portkey and Apparition, involve this technique.

Although positioning magic is simple, it is a bit strange to put it in Hogwarts.

The entire Hogwarts area is subject to a large number of restrictions. The most intuitive feeling of ordinary people is that apparation cannot be performed within the Hogwarts area, but what they don't know is that the additional restrictions include Anti-location, Muggle expulsion, and more.

The positioning magic on the Marauder's Map not only took effect, but it was also extremely accurate, and it was not affected by the restriction at all. This made Mike wonder whether the person who made this Marauder's Map had mastered something that could avoid Huo A technique forbidden by Gwartz.

Although the Marauder's Map is full of doubts, but fortunately Mike is a free and easy person.

For him now, as long as the Marauder's Map can help him catch Percy's pigtails.
